Klaus and Jella Klaus moved to restore an intensive family life. But their kids Hilke, Momme and Fine don't want parental meddling. Jella plots for grandchildren, but goes too far, infuriating the kids, with whom sensible Klaus sides, whom she nagged to spend their twilight years in the country where he integrated fine in village life, she couldn't, while he continues working as international peacemaking lecturer by Internet rather then entertaining her. She grows closer to a local single neighbor Schorsch, a good listener, even seeks to render Klaus jealous. Before that comes to a climax, she upsets Momme's gay relationship with Rudi and nearly wrecks Hilke's architectural career and marriage with Franz, stumbling upon secrets in both cases.
